Dr. Jeff Clements

I am a marine ecologist with a particular interest in benthic invertebrates, currently working as a Research Scientist at Fisheries and Oceans Canada (Gulf Region) in Moncton, NB. Our lab focuses on shellfish ecology, where we use empirical research and evidence synthesis to understand interactions between shellfish and their environment in the context of fisheries, aquaculture, and global change. The environmental interactions we are interested in can be biotic (predation, conspecific associations, parasitism, etc.) or abiotic (physicochemical conditions), and can be natural (natural variation) or anthropogenic (climate change, invasive species, fishing pressure, etc.). Our research questions span the fundamental-applied research continuum and are applicable to basic biological understanding as well as fisheries and aquaculture.
